What is surprising is that so many conservatives believe Obama even though he lies about everything else.
Many of the people on FR lived through the Cold War, and I think they have a hard time grasping that things have changed radically since then internationally and that as things are now the lines between the “good guys” and “bad guys” are often very blurred.
There is no question that Obama’s administration was up to its neck in helping foment an insurrection in Ukraine just as the administration was instrumental in bringing about the so-called “Arab Spring”. In both cases, the administration’s policies led to disastrous outcomes.
